In a statement issued on Tuesday (May 23), the SGPC demanded registration of a case in this regard and urged CM Amarinder Singh to order a thorough probe in this matter.

“This is a very serious matter concerning the violation of human rights in Punjab. Amarinder Singh’s disclosure shows that there was no law in operation at that time and Sikhs were being killed extra-judicially” said SGPC chief Kirpal Singh Badungar and executive committee member Amarjeet Singh Chawla.
